NEC Show Discounts

Doing up the house for the missus stopped me getting the bike I wanted so far this year but I hope to change that soon.
Going to the NEC show and I've heard I can get decent discounts of riding gear there.
I have my eyes on some BMW gear to go along with the bike I'm buying. Are BMW likely to have discounted stuff at the show?

"BMW" and "Sale" are mutually exclusive....

Pay £40 on NEC ticket and Travel to get £20 off a jacket.

Good economics Thumbs Up

With the NEC if you are going anyway, then you can get some deals AND you can try on loads of stuff within walking distance of each other.
I wouldn't go just for bargains though.

As for the BMF, it is too far to nip to.

BMW is more of a manufacturer presence with bikes on show and a few outfits in boxes. IIRC you couldn't buy any branded gear off them.

Overall, I tended to find the better bargains would be last seasons/this seasons leftovers, which is good if your not conscious about having the latest boots or leathers

Is this some Ewan-and-Charlie suit that you're after? If you're buying from a Motorrad dealer then I'd expect that negotiating for it with the bike will get you a better deal.

Or at least a bigger nominal discount, which will make your penis swell heroically after that domestic rolling-pinning from the missus.
